Questions & Answers

I have a WD0800. There is no bag holder to attach a vacuum bag to. It is flat on the inside. Do you sell that part?
ByJan 2, 2025
1 Answer | 
Answer This Question

Hello Ammmmmm, Thank you for your inquiry about our products. The vacuum model WD0800 doesn't have an option to use filter bags. It doesn't have the same inlet port as the newer model where the filter bag hooks onto. Please note that our vacs will operate as expected even without the dust bags. Moreover, depending on what you are planning to pickup, there are 5 types of filters that you can use with your vacuum. For standard or typical basement or garage dirt, you can use the VF4000. For fine dust, such as drywall or cement dust, you must have the VF5000. We also have a filter made of HEPA rated material known as VF6000. This filter is best recommended for picking up pollens and allergens. We have VF7000 foam filter specifically designed only for liquid pick-ups or water-borne debris. Lastly, we have VF8000 HEPA filter that is 99.97% efficient at filtering dry particles 0.3 µm or larger. These filters are regular items at the Home Depot stores. You can also order online at store.ridgid.com. If you have further questions or concerns, you may call Customer Service at 1-800-474-3443 from Monday to Friday between 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM Central Time or email us at info@ridgidvacs.com Thank you, RIDGID Customer Support

                Are replacement hoses still available for model WD16360?
                ByOct 21, 2024
                1 Answer | 
                Answer This Question

                Hello Adam L, Thank you for your inquiry about our products. The replacement hose for your vacuum has a part number VT1720 1-7/8 in. x 7 ft. Tug-A-Long Locking Vacuum Hose. The 2 1/2"" hose will also work, however, you need the end hose interlock adapter to fit the hose to the vac and the 1 7/8"" attachments originally came with your vac will not fit. If you have other questions, please call our Customer Service at 1-800-474-3443 from Monday to Friday between 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM Central Time or send us an email at info@ridgidvacs.com and we'll be glad to assist you.

                  Summarized by generative AI from text of customer reviews

                  Customers say the car nozzle for Ridgid shop vacs is a highly effective tool for cleaning tight spaces in vehicles, offering excellent suction and a thoughtful design that prevents it from sticking to surfaces. Many users appreciate its compatibility with various vacuum models and its sturdy construction. However, some customers noted that it should ideally be included with the vacuum purchase, and there were occasional concerns about sizing and the need for additional accessories. Overall, the product enhances the vacuuming experience, making it easier to reach difficult areas.

                  RIDGID NXT max accessories
                  I had purchased all the new nxt max wet dry vac accessories for my first generation ridgid wet dry vac model wd16300 from 1998-2001. Yes they fit and all of them work great. Been using ridgid vacuums since they came out in 1998. Still works till this day! I definitely recommend them all.

                    Very satisfied
                    This attachment fits standard shop vacuums. It works well in small spaces and is durable. My husband used it to clean out his smoker and it fit into the small areas to easily clean out the ashes. I feel confident that it would work well in home and car detailing. I definitely would recommend this attachment, not only for a Rigid brand vacuum but it also fits our craftsman vacuum too.

                    Improved Design
                    This nozzle has an improved design over the older version. The opening is taller and Less narrow which reduces the number of larger pieces getting stuck. The opening is still about the same surface area so suction is not reduced. It also now has an angle cut at the tip which reduces vacuum hang up on smoother surfaces. Overall construction design appears to provide greater strength.

                    Essential yet simple
                    This will guve your shop vac a whole new.purpose. vaaccuming my car was always such a hassel. I tried small hand held vaccuums but they dont have the suction to really do the job. The shop vac is strong and this simple tool makes it effective in a car. Its just perfect for getting all the crevices and corners. The shop vac iscstong enough to actuallt suck the dirt now.

                    Great locking attachment
                    I picked out this vacuum cleaner attachment to use in my vehicles specifically. Very similar to what you would use at the car wash. I have a Rigid brand canister style vacuum and it fits perfect to the hose. The hose has a simple locking mechanism on the hose that fits perfectly to the attachment. It will not come off until you push in the lock on the hose. This works so good, I am going to look for the same style lock for other styles of attachments.

                    Nice and long angled nozzle for wet/dry shop vacs
                    I plan to use the NXT 2-1/2-inch locking car nozzle in my shop more often than in my car because it works so well when vacuuming under and around tools and stacks of lumber. This nozzle fits perfectly on my Craftsman Wet/Dry Shop Vacuum. The nozzle has just the right angle so that I can stand upright, but still make full contact with the floor. The nozzle fits tightly onto the Craftsman hose, and it does not fall off while vacuuming.

                    A very well made nozzle
                    This fits the hose diameter of both Rigid and my old Craftsman hoses. My original was getting a bit ragged after years of use so it's nice to have a replacement. The opening is wider than my previous and with better angles so cleaning my PU's floors is quicker. It is sturdily made so I expect many more years of service from it. I even used it indoors to reach some ceiling cobwebs.

                    Attachments are not universal with Rigid
                    I have a model WD-4070 and need a carpet attachment with rolling wheels but the one you sell is not compatible with my model. How can this be? Your accessories need to be universal.

                    Hello RIDGID Customer, Thanks for writing a review. We have the Carpet and Hard Floor Nozzle Accessory (VT2530). However, you will need to have an adapter to make it work with your WD4070 and that is included on the 3-piece adapter set (VT1755). You may get this through Home Depot stores or online. If you need guidane on how to connect these, you may contact our Customer Service at 1-800-474-3443 from Monday to Friday between 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM Central Time or send us an email at info@ridgidvacs.com and we'll be glad to assist you.

                      It’s rare but annoying when the nozzle comes adrift during vacuuming and doubly so if the nozzle is deep under a car seat at the time so this range of locking accessories for Ridgid’s popular 2 ½ inch wet and dry shop vac’s is very useful to have. The locking mechanism itself is simple but strong and effective. Made of high quality plastic the accessory attachments fit the existing range of Ridgid shop vac’s without the need for any modification of the original vacuum tubes and extensions. In fact, there is no reason why these locking accessories will not fit any brand of 2 ½ inch vacuums.

                      I love Ridgid products, particularly their Wet Dry Vac. This Car Nozzle is fantastic for getting into places in my vehicle that are particularly hard to reach, i.e. under the seats, floorboards, center console, even the floor mats. The locking feature is also fantastic. While I primarily use this attachment in maintaining my vehicle, it also has many great uses in other areas, i.e. cleaning bed platform, in-between seat cushions, window sills, just so many uses. I highly recommend this attachment for your Ridgid Wet Dry Vac. The results are fantastic.
